unlimited power greater than the u.s. attorneys, who are approved by the senate. tucker: i wouldn t want it on my house, that is for sure. mark penn, thank you very much for that. great to see you. w nbc is extremely upset the president may have paid off a former girlfriend. we should keep in mind, nbc, the same people protected harvey n weinstein, they also made its own payoffs to people who said they were victims of harassment. again, still very upset over the president s response to what are, in effect, extortion threats.r they say trump directed, that is the word, lawyer michael cohen want to cover up campaign contribution in the form of payments to two women with whom he had sexual relations. top republicans are dismissing the allegation that donald trump directed his former fixer, michael cohen, to make illegal hush money payments to two women in the 2016 campaign. it is incredible to me, this is despicable.
schumer paid a fine.qu as you start earlier today, schumer is still in the senate. senator john edwards, meanwhile, funneled up to $1 million in donor money to his mistress in the middle of a presidentialal campaign. he never spent a day in jail for that. he wasn t sleazy, he wasn t a foiminal.mp for some reason, you haven t heard any of that background on nbc recently. the good people of nbc news are disgusted by what donald trump did. paying off a female accusers? that is just wrong!! as nancy pelosi might say, it is immoral.l. it is not something nbc would engage with or tolerate, ever. except, possibly, under extreme circumstances. on those occasions when hiding the sexual misbehavior of its, high paid anchors seemed important to quarterly earnings, or when accused rapist harvey weinstein called in a favor, or other times too.
